I have been in love with many different fictional characters over the years, so I can understand how you feel, and honestly, I find it to be very normal. After all, fictional characters are written in such a way that we know everything there is to know about them. We know and possibly understand them better than any real human in our own lives. Plus, since they are fictional, the fear of loss or betrayal does not exist. It kind of feels as if they are the only people that will definitely always be there for us no matter what.
Right now I have seriously fallen for Kirei Kotomine from the Fate series (huuuge anime fan here) and it has sort of spiraled out of control. I think about him all the time, I have had dreams of him, and I would do anything for him to exist in my life. There has never existed a single person, fictional or real, that I have related to as much as him. I always think about how much I want to meet him, talk with him and be with him. I just feel like he is the only person that understands me and would accept me for who I am, and vice versa.
